(B. Andersson / B. Ulvaeus)

 

When you were lonely
you needed a man
someone to lean on
well I understand -
it’s only natural
but why did it have to be me?

Nights can be empty
and nights can be cold
so you were looking
for someone to hold -
that’s only natural
but why did it have to be me?

I was so lonesome
I was blue
I couldn’t help it
it had to be you
and I

always thought

you knew the reason why
I only wanted a
little love affair
now I can see you are
beginning to care
But baby

believe me
it’s better
to forget me

Men are the toys in
the game that you play -
when you get tired
you throw them away
that’s only natural
but why did it have to be me?

Falling in love with
a woman like you
happened so quickly
there’s nothing to do
it’s only natural
but why did it have to be me?

I was so lonesome…
